Excellent set this issue, in my opinion... a great improvement over most of this year/last year Congratulations Nuts - keep it up!

Lucy is looking particularly fine in these, ...

Do you employ "fine" for no fat or for healthy?

I don't think the same about this shoot. Nuts ladles out Lucy and friends for this anniversary with a bit of ballons and confetti for making more fun. So what? No great shoot at the Seychelles? No luxury?... Only ballons?! Nothing original in fact. It's really to show off cheaply!

According to me, this is an usual issue and Lucy is far to be as fine as in her calendar shoot.

Neither just as a non-specific expression of excellence - that is the usual English usage The sense you're thinking of would probably be "trim", or "fit", although "fit" is also used just to mean "sexy" these days.

Yes, I agree it's not exactly an original shoot, but it's the facial expressions I'm looking at with appreciation I'm so sick to the back teeth of seeing shoots where every picture has Lucy with a lifeless slack-jawed look on her face like a drugged zombie. I make faces like that when I am ill, or particularly depressed, or my breathing difficulties are giving me grief, etc. Same sort of problem with the pics that look like I did when I fell off my bike aged 7 and smashed my mouth on the road. It's absolutely not the sort of thing I want to see in pictures that are supposed to be an expression of beauty!

This shoot is like a breath of fresh air, with Lucy looking alive and joyful for a change It's got a sense of life and fun to it which has been sadly missing from too much of Lucy's work for some time now. It's great to see a shoot with an atmosphere of happy vivacity and I hope Nuts will do more like this

NB: anyway, playing nude with food is not my cup of tea!

Not mine either as it happens! Sticky messes, yuk Pretty sure there's a quote from Lucy herself somewhere as well, about keeping food out of the bedroom. Still, this isn't in the bedroom, it's just horsing around

First off, thanks for the scans pigeon. Sure, its not the most elaborate of themes but I think that was the point given theres seven girls in this shoot. Kinda of like, the girls speak for themselves, why add anything else? The cupcakes remind me of her housekeeping shoot from a few years back so thats a plus in my eyes

Thanks, interesting at the end that Joey & Stacey are naked behind the balloons, but Lucy has still got her knickers on, air brushed out in the pics.

Yes, interesting!

I understand Pigeon.
It's very personnal. I can't prevent myself to see that all this is just an illusion. As in all glamour shoots, Lucy isn't a glamour model, but she acts the glamour model. You know this too, cos we know all the effect we can feel with a candid or an outtake where she smiles for real, where she is more herself.
Some photographer tryed to catch her reality and gave very nice pics. Another ones and the main part of glamour system try to keep her in that role and to take benefit from her as much as they can. For exemple, I can see Damien Morley making very successed pics... perfect in the technical rules of the art, but I can feel no soul in his pics from Lucy.
No I can't see a natural eye of the tiger, she doesn't convince me in this shoot. (but she stays of course very very gorgeous)
